World Domination - RTS [Proof of Concept]

[I_Love_Logic]

I don't know if I should make a demo now with what I have ATM (reg tank; flamethrower tank; enemy turret), or make more then make the demo.
Thoughts?

Demo does tend to create some hype. I think SSTAGG had a comment on this thread earlier saying that you should release it as soon as you can create a demo and get some feedback to find out what else you need to create a nice RTS.

Sidenote: No infantry?! Psh, infantry are the best type of troops

Yeah, I want my anti-tank infantry!

Calm Down Guys! I didn't remember tbat I had the 'Sackbot Head' decoration from the Victoria's Lab levels. Infantry will work

(im back!) i used sackbot haed to make the racing level im working on.
im making about 3 levels right now, maybe more:
Littlebig arcade (logic is harrrd, but ive got almost all the games i need, maybe 1 or 2 more?)
racing (title pending)
have you played bloons tower defence, a game like that

^ BTD, by Ninja Kiwi™ ? I've played all 4 of them. That's another project though! =P

Anyway, Iamgoofball and I are making the demo

[I_Love_Logic]

Made basic Infantry, but still need better enemy targeting to and from it.

If you need help with logic, I'd be willing to make some logic mockups. I'm very interested in making an RTS myself.

[I_Love_Logic]

:-D Someone revived my thread :-D I'll add you, see just what kind of stuff you can make

[xPaveway]

Hey I tried to add you on PSN but it says you have too many friends.

[I_Love_Logic]

Oh yeah sorry about that...


Anyway... I am thinking of:

a. Scrappin the project (too little RTS fans and too much work)

b. Remaking a basic RTS, stopping, then continuing in a few months with better ideas.

A lil help?

[xPaveway]

Hmm, maybe not completely scrapping it. I think it would be better to downsize it, just have it be a simple RTS. It would act as a proof of concept which can later be added to make a bigger game.

I find often that starting huge projects can lead to them burning out. It's best to stat small and expand on it later.
